In this episode of the Elk Junkie podcast, Dirk Durham, or as many of us know him as "The Bugler", joins us for an incredible show. If you think you have heard it all from Dirk, well trust us, you haven't. Dirk shares life before "The Bugler", the new elk calls from Phelps Games Calls (Metal Bugle Tube, Mini AMP diaphragms, and Young'n Calf Call), the process of innovating and creating a new call, who won the elk diaphragm contest (Pink Phelps Signature call or the Red Maverick call), Dirks most memorable hunts (we loved his response), what it was like using a mouth tab for drawing back his bow and shooting a bull, plans for this fall, social media and the hunting industry, and Dirk's advice and lessons learned (and no, it's not about how to call elk, it's even more profound than that...more great responses). Thanks for listening and we hope you enjoy this episode of the Elk Junkie podcast.
